JetMail - Take a friend for $3

Just received this email from Jetstar

Jetstar Airways - Cheap Flights, Low Sale Fares all day everyday from Australia's newest Cheap Fare airline



Jetstar's 3rd Birthday "Take a Friend for $3 Sale" launches midnight tonight!




It's Jetstar's 3rd Birthday! And to celebrate, Jetstar is having a truly spectacular sale yet again! Fly Jetstar direct from within Australia to any International or Australian destination (except Bali and Singapore) and take a friend with you for only $3 more per flight!



So for example, when you buy one standard JetSaver fare to Bangkok, Sydney, Hamilton Island or Vietnam, you'll get the second fare for only $3 more! Additional amounts apply to credit card payments.


Get ready... fares are available from midnight (AEST) tonight Wednesday 2nd May, 2007 and are on sale until midnight (AEST) 7th May 2007, unless sold out prior and are not available on all flights or days. Travel periods vary so visit jetstar.com for more information

I think they'll catch people off guard with this one, emailing late in the evening for a start in 50 mins. Hopefully it'll hold up for tonight at least!

oz_mark,

As usual I didn't get this so I've just reregistered. Was there a link or how do you get the $3 availability to show? I can't work out a way to doit yet.

...and the web site is still working thus far

Re: JetMail - Take a friend for $3

The link in the email goes directly to the Jetstar "Sale Fares" page, so theres no hidden "invite only" link this time, seems its a free-for-all.

Re: JetMail - Take a friend for $3

i cannot see the $3 fares yet
i think its only a sale out from australia (one way) if your flying international though

it might make sense to use your qantas points for the return leg

Re: JetMail - Take a friend for $3

Funny.

Last night the Jetstar site would only work for me (sort of) using IE and not Mozilla. Tonight it only works using Mozilla and is jumbled using IE.

Weird. ..then again, it is Jetstar

Re: JetMail - Take a friend for $3

Well believe it or not the bloody thing worked! All booked for SYD-HKT-SYD for two people for $870 including card surcharge. Easiest Jetstar Sale ever.

Dates available are 1 - 21 June, 24 July - 13 September & 16 October - 12 December. A few routes are blacked out, but the table is set up easily enough on the website to follow.

Availability seems good thus far, get in early!
